Question wpa_supplicant error, need to restore


Coby kyros 7015

I very recently used a patch to get ad-hoc. Based on the filr contents it looks like it only treplaced wpa_supplicant Maybe I didn't read the description right but my wifi now won't turn on and stay on. So I was wondering if I pull an older version of wpa and copy/paste it over where it needs will it work again or do I need to do a factory reset

Does anyone know/have a patch so that I can connect to ad-hoc or an apk....
________________edit____________________________

So i was impaitent i decided to do a factory reset to see if that cured the wifi problem. it didn't and now all my apps are gone and i can't get to wifi... right now if i can get a terminal emulatory i can get back into clockworld and wipe all that as well but idk**. Prior to that i tried using the original wpa_suplicant but still the same thing kinda, now its telling me unable to start (and/or stop) wifi so yeah i fear i am so close yet so far to bricking it and i've only had it for a couple days....

**I used the recovery utility wipe first then i tried the factory reset within the UI
